I HAVE 2003 RAV4 WITH 70000 MILES, ALL OF SUDDEN THE GEAR STARTED JUMP AND JERK, I ASKED A DEALER HOW TO FIX IT, THE DEALER TOLD ME TO PAY $4000, THIS IS VERY BAD I HOPE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL BECAUSE EVERYBODY WITH RAV 4 HAS THE SAME PROBLEM..THIS IS SO BAD.. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I WAS DRIVING UPHILL ON A SNOWY DRIVEWAY. THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SPEED UP. I APPLIED THE BRAKES (WHICH CAUSED THE ABS TO PULSE VERY RAPIDLY), BUT THE CAR DID NOT SLOW DOWN. I SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL AND THE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY REVVED TO A FAIRLY HIGH RPM. I TURNED OFF THE KEY AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE WHICH NOW RAN NORMALLY. THIS RAV4 DOES NOT HAVE ANY OPTIONAL FLOOR MATS AND HAS ONLY 6000 MILES ON IT. THIS IS A 2008 RAV4 AND, AS SUCH, IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE CURRENT RECALL. *TR
